    Going through old NZ Hot Rod books I noticed Gary's old '27 T Coupe is still one fine looking car and used by the current owner down Christchurch way. I haven't seen the '26 Chevy Tourer before and that looks like a top car too.


    Yep, Gary has built some nice cars in his time; a clever bloke.
    Re the tourer: I'm pretty sure that was the car that won a trophy a few years back for 'Best Under Construction', but I've not seen it since.
    Robin may know.
